Definitions

  • the invention relates to a child seat for vehicles, with a seat part, of which a back part is up, to which a headrest is mounted vertically adjustable.
  • Such a child seat is for example from the WO 99/10197 A1 known.
  • the back part is integrally formed with side cheeks, so that the distance between the headrest and the side cheeks of the back part changes when the headrest is adjusted along the back part. This means that the comfort of this known child seat leaves nothing to be desired, if in such a child seat, a larger child takes place, because then the side cheeks of the back may still form a breast support, but are spaced from the shoulders of the child, so that the seating comfort can be affected accordingly.
  • the FR 2 794 409 A which is considered as the closest prior art, describes a child seat for vehicles, with a seat portion from which a back portion projects upwardly to which a headrest is mounted adjustable in height, with the headrest two shoulder support parts are height adjustable.
  • the back part is formed with upwardly widening guides, along which the two shoulder support parts are guided in such a way that at a height adjustment of the headrest is simultaneously a lateral adjustment of the shoulder support parts.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a child seat of the type mentioned, the seating comfort is improved.
  • the child seat according to the invention thus has a good comfort, which is associated with improved safety features, because each child sitting in the child seat according to the invention finds any size in the child seat a customized inner contour.
  • Another advantage is that the adjustment of the child seat by the provided between the headrest with the shoulder support parts and the seat part, the headrest with the shoulder support parts for extending and / or retracting acting force-assisted adjustment with little effort is possible.
  • the back part has two pairs of upwardly extending guides, which are provided one above the other at a distance from one another and oriented parallel to one another.
  • Each shoulder support part expediently has two guide elements guided along the associated two lateral guides.
  • the guides are formed, for example, as slots into which the guide members of the shoulder support parts project without play.
  • the seat part has upstanding side walls and if each shoulder support part is formed with a side cheek, on the underside an extension is provided, which is adjacent to the corresponding side cheek inside in the lowest position of the headrest.
  • Such a design has the advantage that the clear distance between the two side cheek of the seat part by the down standing extensions of the two shoulder support parts is reduced when the headrest assumes its lowest position.
  • the headrest is adjusted in particular to the lowest position when a correspondingly small child takes place in the child seat according to the invention.
  • the seat part has on the inside two half-shell elements, wherein the lower-side extensions of the shoulder support parts between the side cheeks of the seat part and the two half-shell elements are hineinbewegbar. It is possible to reduce the clearance between the two half-shell elements, when the headrest is lowered and at the same time the lateral distance between the shoulder support parts is reduced.
  • restoring devices are provided between the two half-shell elements.
  • the restoring devices can be elastically resilient elements such as tension springs, bands of elastic material or the like.
  • the back part of the seat part can stand rigidly upwards.
  • the back part is pivotally mounted on the seat part between a sitting position and a rest position.
  • a locking device is provided to fix the back part on the seat part in the sitting position or in the rest position with respect to the seat part. This pivotability can be a gradual or continuous pivoting.
  • the headrest with the shoulder support parts on the back part can be mounted stepwise or continuously adjustable in height.
  • a stepwise height adjustment of a headrest is, for example, in the cited above WO 99/10197 A1 disclosed.
  • the force-assisted adjusting device can be designed as a compression spring or as a tension spring.
  • the formation of the force-assisted adjustment as a compression spring may be preferred, because the depression of the headrest with the shoulder support parts can be supported by the use of body weight.
  • the compression spring can thus offer an ergonomic advantage over the tension spring.
  • the force-assisted adjusting device may further comprise a releasable blocking element.
  • the headrest By pressing the locking element, the headrest can be fixed with the shoulder support parts within a structurally predetermined adjustment in any height position with respect to the seat part.
  • the blocking element has an actuating device. It may be, for example, a handle connected to a cable or a lever linkage with the locking element or an actuating knob or the like.
  • the actuating device can be arranged in the region of the headrest.
  • the handle can preferably be arranged in a recessed grip, which can be arranged for example on the back of the headrest so that a hand for height adjustment with the palm rest on the top of the headrest and one or more fingers that Press handle.
  • the recessed grip can advantageously be used both in a force-assisted adjusting device designed as a compression spring and in a power-assisted adjusting device designed as a tension spring.
  • the actuating device has an actuating button, it can be arranged so that it causes the upper portion of the head restraint so that it simultaneously releases the locking element of the power-assisted adjusting when depressing the headrest.
  • the force-assisted adjusting device can be designed as a gas pressure spring.
  • the gas spring is a hydropneumatic adjusting element.
  • the gas spring consists generally of pressure tube, piston rod with piston and suitable connections. It is filled with a compressed gas that is below a preset internal pressure.
  • the spring force exerted by the gas spring can be accurately determined within physical limits by the appropriate choice of the filling pressure. It is advantageous that the spring force is not path-dependent, and that the gas filling also acts as a damping element.
  • the seat part is formed with Gurt EquipmentsausEnglish Institute. It serves a lap belt of the corresponding vehicle to determine the child seat. If the child seat according to the invention also be set on the diagonal belt of a three-point belt of a vehicle, it is expedient if the headrest has side cheeks, between the lower edge and the upper edge of the side cheeks of the two shoulder support parts Gurt Resultssschlitze are provided for the Diagonalgurt.
  • the figures show a child seat 10 - without reference - to illustrate the essential details of the child seat 10.
  • the child seat 10 has a seat part 12, from the side cheeks 14 are up, a back part 16 which protrudes upward from the seat part 12, and a headrest 18 and two shoulder support parts 20.
  • the two shoulder support parts 20 are mirror-symmetrical and connected to the headrest 18 adjustable in height.
  • the back portion 16 is formed with two pairs 22 of upwardly extending guides 24 and 26.
  • In the guides 24 are free of play guide members 28 and in the guides 26 are free play guide members 30 into it.
  • the guide members 28 and 30 are provided on the respectively associated shoulder support part 20.

Due to the upwardly widening guides 24 and 26, the two shoulder support parts 20 at a height adjustment of the headrest 18 at the same time perform a lateral movement in the FIGS. 2 and 3 indicated by the arrows 36. In this way results for children of different sizes each an optimal adjustment of the child seat 10 not only with respect to the headrest 18 to the head of the child but also an adaptation of the shoulder support parts 20 to the shoulder area of the respective child.
  • Each shoulder support part 20 is underside with an extension 38 (see, for example. FIG. 3 ), which in the lowest position of the headrest 18 - as in FIG. 1 is clarified - is adjacent to the side walls 14 inside, so that the inside clearance between the side walls 14 is reduced accordingly.
  • This inside clearance is in FIG. 1 indicated by the arrow 40.
  • a small child in the child seat 10 finds in the in FIG. 1 drawn position of the headrest 18 and the two shoulder support members 20 through the extensions 38 of the shoulder support members 20 also with his pelvic area and his thighs a good lateral support, so that a good seating comfort is given good security properties.
  • the seat part 12 is formed on its side walls 14 with Gurt arrangementsausEnglishept 42. These Gurt ResultssausEnglishept 42 serve to receive a lap belt of a vehicle seat belt.
